Funky Fixes: Innovative Design

With a move into a new apartment on my upcoming agenda, I have design constantly on my mind. I’m currently swooning over the designs from Dust Furniture. This cabinet and clock are on the top of my wish list. To me, the furniture pieces from 

Funky Fixes: Beauty Rest

The first day of the fall semester has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean you’re used to your new schedule yet.  Late nights and early morning classes can be a killer combination. If you already feel sleep deprived this may not bode well for 

Funky Fixes: Get Ready in Style

I’ve come to realize that I have an unusual habit when getting ready. After showering, rather than changing into the outfit I plan on wearing for the day, I put on more casual clothing such as running shorts and a tank top. Seems a little 

Funky Fixes: Tats in the Kitchen

Funky Fixes: Fanny Packs, a blast from the past

I was recently given a fanny pack as a present. At first, I wasn’t sure what to think about the gift. Are they being serious? Aren’t fanny packs totally from the 80’s? Does this have any fashion potential? After testing out my hott pink fanny 

Funky Fixes: Make a Wish

I almost always gravitate to things that are bright and colorful. So naturally, when I was perusing Urban Outfitter’s website, these Crystal Garden Wish Flowers caught my eye. By simply mixing water and the special solution, you can grow a crystal within two weeks! The
